• I have climbed highest mountain I have run through the fields Only to be with you Only to be with you

I have run I have crawled I have scaled these city walls These city walls Only to be with you

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for ( 2X )

• I have kissed honey lips Felt the healing in her fingertips It burned like fire This burning desire

• I have spoke with the tongue of angels I have held the hand of a devil It was warm in the night I was cold as a stone

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for ( 2X )

I believe in the kingdom come Then all the colors will bleed into one Bleed into one Well yes I'm still running

You broke the bonds and you Loosed the chains Carried the cross Of my shame Of my shame You know I believed it

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
